Diamond POV,

The tension that stilled air after what the boys said, was choking.

“Uh...Go to the car and wait for me. I’ll be with you guys shortly.” I immediately say to the boys to lighten the air, shying my gaze away from Karl making me look even more awful.

“Yes, Mummy.” They answered in unison but didn’t make an attempt to move. They just kept looking up at Karl and grinning from ear to ear.

“So, Uncle Karl, when are you going to take us to the beach?” It was Hayden who asked.

“Beach? I want to go to the movies!” Jayden countered. “I want to watch Superman save the city just like Uncle Karl saved us from that mean lady.”

“But I want to go to the beach; I want to build a sandcastle, just like the ones we see in the movies!” Hayden insisted and as if thinking the same thing, they both turned to Braden to see if his choice would break the deadlock but thankfully, Karl intervened.

“Okay now, boys, there’s no need to argue about going to the beach or the movies when we can do b

    “I trusted him,” Rebecca's sniff, blowing into the tissue she had been folding endlessly. “I thought he was my ride or die, you know, my soulmate.

    A feeling of relief washed over my tired body when I entered the living room of my mansion. I was finally home after a long, stressful day at work. All I wanted to do was freshen up, eat, read a bedtime story to my daughter and go to bed. No matter how stressed I am, I always try to read Natalia a couple of bedtime stories or more, at least until she falls asleep. That was one of the only things I enjoyed coming back home to these days. Actually, that might be the only thing. Removing my suit jacket, I tossed it to the sofa and slumped on the couch, eliciting a sigh of relief when my body touched the softness of the couch. This was the first time I was sitting in hours, except for when I had to spend long hours in the traffic. That didn’t count. My eyes fluttered close as I allowed the satisfactory feeling to overcome every nerve in my body. But not long after, I heard the angry footsteps of Agatha which was accompanied by a series of yelling. “Where have you been, Lennox?” She

    Diamond POV My alarm clock rang, drawing me out of my unconsciousness. But unlike some days. I didn’t sign and rolled over in my bed. I didn’t feel groggy. For some reason, despite only sleeping for five hours last night because the boys kept me up, I felt energetic. A smile touched my lips as I opened my eyes to stare at my ceiling for a while. Maybe it was because today was also my day off. As much as I love helping people, I also needed to be there for my children, to spend time with them. They were growing so quickly and I didn’t want to miss out on this part of their lives. Thankfully, the hospital granted my petition to have some days off. One or two in a week was more than enough. Though this was subjective to cases of emergencies and cases that required my presence. Well, that was one reason. The most important reason for my happiness, as it had been in the past few days, was that I had a sense of calm wash over me. I felt relieved, every sense of guilt was now in t

    KarlI laid on my bed replaying that moment at the beach over and over again. Diamond looked so stunning in that dress, I don’t think she realized just how breathtaking she was. I literally couldn’t take my eyes off her no matter how discreet I tried to be. From the moment she came out of her room, all through the car ride, in the gallery, in the restaurant and on the beach. She had only caught me staring at her on the beach. As the wind blew her hair every which way exposing her long neck which I itched to run my mouth along, I suddenly forgot about the act of being discreet as I was lost in my imaginations. It was only when she looked at me that I realized I had been caught dead. But there was no use trying to pretend I wasn’t just ravishing her with my eyes. And when our eyes locked, I felt all the hair on skin stand—something I had imagined was mutual. And I tried to do the one thing on my mind at that moment, I tried to kiss her but then she pulled away. At first I felt deflate

    I spent the better part of my day operating on two patients who had been involved in a pretty nast car accident. By the time they were brought in, they had lost a lot of blood and their vessels were quite weak. But the surgery was their only chance at survival so it had to be done. I was going to add this to the list of delicate moments—and surgeries—I have performed in my life. If one was to ask me and I was supposed to be a hundred percent honest, I would have said that both patients had less than fifty percent chance of survival; especially the young girl who was the victim of an accident caused by a drunk driver. Truthfully, no doctor wants to be associated with failed surgeries, myself included. So why bother taking up a surgery when you are almost certain that it is going to be a lost cause? The reason I began medical school might not have been because I had the passion for it. At first, this was the case. My parents wanted me to follow in their footsteps, to continue their

    I waved him goodbye and in less than ten minutes, I was on my way home. Texas might be drama free but the traffic is hell. I spent more than an hour navigating through it and by the time I got back home, the kids were already in bed. I half expected that they would be jumping around in their PJ’s, playing with their Uncle Karl but somehow, Karl managed to put them to sleep. I found Karl watching a sports channel when I walked into the living room. On seeing me, he smiled into my eyes, standing from the sofa. “I’m glad you’re home safely, Diamond. I was worried about you.” “Thank you, Karl.” That was the only thought in my head—thoughts of gratitude. “Thank you for staying up this late for me, for watching over the kids. Thank you for being there for them. Honestly, I don’t know what I would have done without you.” He shrugged his shoulders, that smile not disappearing from his face. “It’s really not a problem, Diamond. I told you, I like doing this—spending time with the boys and

After taking the swab, I am to put it into a sample bag and give to the nurse, but instead I just stare at it.‘Dr. Smith’, the nurse calls.‘Oh sorry, take this to the lab and tell them to run a test on it. It’s probably just a bacterial infection but we still need to take precaution.’Take precaution.My mind immediately wanders to Lennox and how much precaution I would take being around him.I can’t do this.I can’t go back there and most importantly, he can’t know about them.‘Doctor?’‘Give him antibiotics, penicillin, to relieve the pain.’‘Alright Dr. Smith.’I hurry back to my office shutting the door behind me. I pull out my chair and sink into it, burying my head in the table. Just then, I hear a knock on the door. The person doesn’t even wait for a reply and enters into my office.Rebecca.Of course and I scoff.‘Are you okay? I saw you rush in here,

    Diamond2 years later…I looked around happy with the table arrangement. Lennox would sit beside me of course, the kids and then Karl and Rebecca beside each other. The oven dinged and I went over to check the chicken. Rebecca loves her chicken golden brown and properly crisped, so I left it in for a few more minutes.Rebecca and Karl were coming over for dinner and final preparations for their wedding tomorrow. She had always wanted to go on her honeymoon the night of her wedding, so I won’t get to see her for a while after tomorrow. That only reiterated the need for this dinner. Lennox and I would be hosting them, alongside the kids. We were happily married now and might I say, this two years have been the best of my life. A lot had happened within the span of two years. My parents and I were finally on good terms although we don’t speak frequently because that can’t just change after so many years. I had gotten a permanent job at the hospital. After the incident with Tim, he an

    Diamond My hands were trembling as I made my way to Lennox’s room. Karl was behind me and I could sense that he was equally as anxious as I was. Rebecca had gone to inform Lennox’s parents about his condition. I slowly knocked on the door before letting myself in. I turned to see that Karl wasn’t following me in. He nodded and closed the door behind me. Lennox was staring at me intensely as I walked across the room to the bed. “Hey”, I said as I sat beside him. “Hi”, his smile was wide and genuine. He took my hand in his and brought them up to his lips, placing a small kiss on my knuckles. “I was so scared…”, I began as tears filled my eyes, “I’m sorry”, I said cleaning the tears off my eyes. “What are you sorry for, you didn’t do anything” “Exactly, I didn’t do anything. I couldn’t do anything, I…I thought I was going to lose you. I couldn’t bear the thought of not seeing you again, of not having you in my life.” “Diamond…”, he squeezed my hands gently and looked into my

    Karl I paced around the hospital hallway after my discussion with the doctor. He had spoken to Diamond first since I was nowhere to be found. After making sure Hayden was alright, I left the hospital to go search for Agatha and Lennox since they both had mysteriously disappeared. Rebecca had to stay with Diamond and the kids for emotional support. But during my vague search, I saw on the news that Lennox had been shot by an ex-convict. I had never been more sacred in my life. I began panicking and stumbled over anything and everything in my way, but I didn’t bother to pick them up. I had been to the bar I met Lennox in. At that point I just searched everywhere Lennox would normally be that I was aware of. The bartender and a few drunk men yelled at me as I exited the bar but I payed no attention to them. I immediately ran to my car, fondling with my keys, before I finally opened it. I hopped in and sped off quickly in the direction of the hospital. A lot of things went through my

    DiamondHayden was awake and could finally have visitors. He’d have to stay in the hospital for a few days before he could be discharged. The doctors had to monitor his progress and recovery. “Put that down”, I ordered Braden who was accessing some of the equipment on a tray“I know you’re curious, I was too at your age, but these are sharp objects and not something you play with”, he pouted and stepped away from the tray, “I’ll get a nurse to take the tray out”Jayden was sitting beside Hayden on the bed, he had not left that position since we came in to see Hayden. I hated having to put them through this, it was my mess, they didn’t have to suffer for it too.I left the room to get a nurse to come clear the tray.I was about entering the room when I turned to see Rebecca running to me. She got to where I was standing, breathing heavily.“What’s wrong, Rebecca? Why are you running?”She was still panting heavily but managed to get her words out.“Le...Lennox, he was rushed to the ho

    LennoxI had never felt more scared in my life. My heartbeat elevated as we ran into the hospital. I tried to collect my thoughts. I felt so guilty. I never should have let Natalia out of my sight. If anything happened to her it would be my fault and I wouldn’t be able to live with myself.We rushed to the security office. Rebecca was there, in a heated argument with one of the security guards.“What’s going on?”, I asked as we neared them.Rebecca turned to me and said the man wouldn’t allow her see the security footages. I mentally smacked myself in the head, why didn’t I think of this first before running to the police station.Agatha walked passed me and began threatening the guard who seemed unfazed by her words.We had to get permission from the board in other to view the footages but there was no time for that. So I stepped forward willing to plead with the guard. To my surprise he recognized me, and his tone changed to one of respect.“Dr. Winthrop, are you with t

    AgathaI wasn’t sure I had heard right.“What did you say?”, I asked, anger and disgust clear in my tone.Diamond stood her ground looking as confident as ever.“You heard me…”“Diamond”, Lennox called and my eyes immediately flew to him.I couldn’t believe it. Lennox was the father of these bastards?How is it even possible?They are probably a year younger than Natalia. So when did it even happen?Where they still seeing each other behind my back?So many questions swirled in my head. I assumed a variety of conclusions.But deep down there was one final conclusion which I didn’t want to accept. And it seemed like the most reasonable…She had gotten pregnant before their divorce.That would mean he didn’t cheat on me or betray me.I turned to look at the two boys with identical faces. I had never seen it before, mainly because I never bothered to observe them, but there was a resemblance to the Winthrops…to Lennox.I shook my head in disbelief.Turning away from the b

    DiamondWe were in the waiting room, expecting the feedback from the doctors in the OR.Everywhere was tense. The boys clung to me tightly.Rebecca had gone to get coffee, even though it was pretty late for that.She came into the room with a plastic cup of coffee at hand. She had asked if I wanted some but I declined.She gulped down the entire cup before assuming her position of resting on the wall again. Even when there were many available seats.Lennox was also in the room, although I didn’t dare look at him.Our conversation earlier was pretty heated. And it ended with me leaving the rooftop in tears. I didn’t even know when he entered the room since I was lost in my head.It hurt so much because everything he said was true. I hadn’t really thought about it then. But I could see now that what I did was wrong, not only to Lennox but to my boys too.Could you really blame me though?I was humiliated and I had no one. And my boys deserved the best. They still do.The door

    Lennox‘His father’s blood is a match’The words kept replaying in my head. I didn’t understand.Why would the doctor call me Hayden’s father?Maybe he made a mistake.“What are you saying Doc?”, I asked.“Well you know how we are incorporating new technology into every field in this hospital. So we used the STRs for a more accurate and faster result”The STRs…It is a specific genetic marker.That method would not just check the compatibility of the blood group but also genetic similarities.No I couldn’t believe it. I shook my head turning away from the doctor.“Here are the results”, he said for more confirmation.I slowly took them from his hands, eager yet scared to see what it was.I unfolded the paper.Positive…Match…Applicable…He was right. The Doc was right.So many thoughts swirled through my head. I didn’t even know where to start.“You can come in for the transfusion whenever you’re ready”, he said, bringing me back to reality.He turned away from me

    Diamond I blinked a million times. Maybe my eyes were playing tricks on me. I couldn’t believe that was Hayden on the floor. Rebecca shook me yelling my name before I finally snapped out of it.The realization dawned on me.I quickly ran to Hayden who was lying unconscious. The boys began to cry tugging on Hayden. He was bleeding from his head. I looked up at Natalia, her expression had gone from angry to frightened.I turned to her sharply and yelled.“Why did you do this? Why did you push him?”, I was so furious now I couldn’t think straight.“What the hell is wrong with you?”“I don’t…I” she stammered, and her eyes widened in shock when she saw the blood flowing from Hayden’s head.The boys kept crying now and fought the tears that threatened to fall.I hurriedly carried Hayden in my hands and Rebecca ran to get the keys to the car.No communication was needed.I rushed to the car and placed an unconscious Hayden in the back seat and I hopped in sitting beside him
